LSCC Board Meeting

April 13, 2004

Attendees: Cindy Wheeler, Carol Benson, Alf Ladderud, Robert Schueler, Becky Olness, Michelle Young, Sharon Veldhuis, Jean Boston

The meeting was called to order at 7:10 p.m. at the home of Jean Boston.

Floor Damage

Floor damage that occurred from one of our rentals was reported by Claudette to Cindy.  It was not discovered until the Monday following the rental for a Friday evening event.  It was determined that we should have an insurance adjuster come out to give a bid for repair for the water damage and to replace the boards with holes that go clear through the wood.

 

Action Items:

1. Carol will call the adjuster.
2. Michelle will call the renter to make them aware that we expect payment for damages.

 

In the future, there will be a 30-day delay before security deposits are returned to renters.  We will have our contract updated to reflect this.  Carol will deposit the damage deposits instead of simply holding them which is what is currently done.

Solicitation Mailing

The mailing that Becky did for funds solicitation resulted in several being returned.  For those who have not paid, we will begin to use "Resident" in an effort to get them delivered, as there have been changes in ownership and tenancy.  We will make personal visits to our non-paying lake residents. 

 

Action Items:

1. Becky will get the mailing list from Bart.
2. The list will be sorted by address for ease in assigning board member responsibility.
3. Steve will get with Janie to see how we sorted our list last year.

Egg Hunt Review

The Egg Hunt was a great success. Carol has been given the financial info for the hunt.  We were able to recoup 1/3 of the plastic eggs.  BD Newsletter should include a thank you for all who donated.

 

Notes for next years Egg Hunt:

A. We will need to solicit more donations.

B. It took 18 man-hours to stuff eggs.

C. Perhaps next year we can solicit food donations for BD Food Bank. 

D. Start time for setup next year should be 8:30.

E.      Board must solicit funds from Rotary for 2005 hunt.

F.      We need to set up bin for plastic eggs donated back to us.

 

Action Items:

1. Carol to give a financial summary of Egg Hunt at next meeting.
2. Cindy to take advantage of after Easter sales for next year's prizes.
